Rehearsal for Repair, 2025
Paper
24 X 24
In this series of twelve works, I explore the relationship between presence and disappearance — how the body can be extruded, abstracted, and reshaped across mediums. Beginning with painted and photographed self-portraits, I perform and dance in front of my own paintings, capturing the figure in motion. These images are then fragmented and reassembled into delicate paper sculptures.
The process is one of breaking and reconfiguring — pulling the work apart to bring it back together in a new form. The resulting sculptures are ghostly, quiet bodies that hover between image and object, surface and depth. Movement becomes residue, and gesture becomes structure — a dance held in stillness.
This practice is a meditation on memory, repair, and transformation. What was once whole is broken and reformed — not to erase the fracture, but to let it shape what comes next. Feeling becomes form, motion becomes presence.
